For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both issues at the same time have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS.
